I also loved the real-time strategic element, where how you managed your archers, pike-men, infantry, and cavalry was as important as how many hits you could rack up on combos.

The Mariners only migrated about a block and a half south, so I'm not sure it counts.

Those gambling debts don't pay themselves.

Sandrobeast does not cry. He pummels his foes.

A few things:

They canna' take our lives, just our intestines!

No disagreement was intended! I was simply stating that because the culture is already predisposed to order out, the delivery options are much more varied in the greater Seattle area compared to other parts of the country.

I think it's a combination of factors.

I think he did legitimately trip on the grass, but his reaction afterwards, where he immediately points an accusing finger, tells me that it wouldn't stop him from trying to capitalize on his own clumsiness.

It's like they say: you don't have to be racially motivated to be a dick, but it helps.

This from the team that counts Ozzie "Backflips" Smith among its club legends.

I'm interested in the improvements over the course of the console cycle as developers learned to harness the power of the platforms.

I think it makes sense to leave the PC out of this conversation, as the PC platform exists in a state of constant incremental improvement year-over-year. Let me put it this way: an XBox 360 or PS3 purchased in 2006 will play all the same games at identical performance levels as one purchased in 2013, whereas a PC that…

Are we sure this place wasn't once a Native American burial ground or something?

It seems to me that the Chiefs don't need to change their name so much as their branding and iconography.
